I have a super fun and adorable DIY project to share today, it’s a stuffed
animal storage on top with an area for books/board games underneath, pretty cool
if I do say so myself! I have been wanting to give the kid’s some sort of
stuffed animal storage in their room and almost sewed up a corner hammock but
then after some Pinterest snooping, a new idea came to light. This is much cuter
and more accessible for the little ones.

We started with an old dresser drawer, the plan was to just add some neat
chair legs to the bottom but my boyfriend came up with the idea to put a shelf
on the bottom and we just so happened to have an old coffee table that
we he cut and resized to fit the shelf. He then put a
piece of marbled tile on the back so the books would stay in place.

I am absolutely in love with the finished result & it’s really been a
good addition to the kids’ room. I love the color because it’s gender neutral
and just AWESOME to look at. It’s called “kelp” and we got it from our local
true value. We’ve had to restock since this project because of how much I love
it. And best of all, this project only cost about $3 in paint and that’s IT,
definitely worth the time and effort. It’s amazing what some old furniture and
some pretty paint can do!

Thank God for my amazing boyfriend who brings all of my ideas to life,
because without his handiness, this project will still be a nagging idea in my
brain!

Hope this neat and simple project inspires some ideas for you guys. This is
just the start of about five recent DIY projects in our house, so stay tuned for
more projects like this one.
